Acer announces a laptop for casual gamers – The Verge

Acer has released a new gaming laptop, but this one isn’t targeted at serious players. The Acer Nitro 5 Spin is an entry-level gaming laptop designed for casual gamers who may not want to shell out for a serious gaming laptop.

Acer says the Nitro 5 Spin supports Windows 10 Hello, and will last up to 10 hours on a charge. Although it’s far from the most powerful gaming laptop, Acer says it should be able to run games like Dota 2 and Overwatch smoothly. The Acer Nitro 5 Spin will be available in North America and Europe in October for $999 / €1,199.
